While we groan and gripe at the constant mention of ‘company culture’ and ‘record profits', at least some CEOs are benign enough to ignore on a regular basis. But while there are a handful of untroublesome employers, there are also a few bosses out there still clinging to cringey, outdated behavior that has no place in the office in 2024.

Pallets may be heavy, but so is the weight of anti-authority malicious compliance

There's a difference between being cheap and being frugal.

Right now, many labor guys are strapping young chaps, but after a lifetime of inhaling cement dust, getting harsh chemicals on their skin, and dangling from a high-rise with no safety harness, they will be worse for wear.

Moving day looked a lot different when we were in our 20s. Back then, we would "pay" our gym buddies with a case of beer and free pizza after moving a 2-ton hand-me-down couch and our prized record collection up 7 flights of stairs, but now, nobody wants to risk a herniated disk over a sliver of pepperoni and cheese. Thus, moving companies were born.

When you're a contractor working on the job, there are a million hazardous things around you. We've all seen Final Destination, we know what the wood chipper, the table saw, and the open electrical wires are capable of… But what about the less obvious hazards at work?

This customer made a wrong turn down 'Entitled Alley' and found out pretty quickly that his truck couldn't handle the terrain. Overinflated by unchecked arrogance, the guy in our next story got more than what he asked for at the auto shop.

When you're good at your job, your boss will inevitably ask you to do MORE tasks outside of your job description. Naturally, that never comes with a raise or recognition of any kind, so most employees wrinkle their nose at the prospects of overachieving. In this case, a hardworking manual labor worker was asked to do menial tasks that were so far out of his job description, that he decided to take action to ensure that he would never be asked again.

Companies today are always complaining about labor shortages and how the workforce is getting ‘too lazy’ to go back to work. Au contraire you silly nepo-CEO's, it's not that there aren't any employees willing to work anymore, it's just that they're not willing to go back to work with no benefits, meager salaries, and to work overtime lining the pockets of a hypocritical boss that sends one email a week for a $500k annual salary.

Nextdoor is a place where Karens and Kevins can be truly free. Since it's essentially a zip-code mitigated version of Twitter, most users are only here for a handful of reasons: their pet is missing, informal noise complaints, unofficial vigilante work, and the occasional good ol' fashioned neighborly grift. If you're not scamming your neighbors on Nextdoor, can you even call yourself a real grifter?

Work can get boring sometimes, especially when the bulk of your job is to sit around and wait for things to happen. For one man, a warehouse quality control guy ( u/Gasp32 ), his daily life was ruled by grueling 12 hour shifts, boring Excel sheets, and killing time while on the clock. Claiming he could do a full 12 hour shift in 4 hours time, Gasp struggled to make himself seem busy while he was clocked in and on the job and paid the ultimate price for following the habits of his other coworker…

Everything just hits different in Florida. Fondly known as the ‘penis of America’, Florida has proven that its mercurial population and DGAF approach to life can simply raw dog reality with no consequences. One local restaurant took that same Floridian spirit and has gone viral on Reddit through a post by a former patron, who shared a picture of an egregiously back-handed sign displayed in front of the business. Camellia Street Grill, a small local place in the heart of the Everglades, is obvio…

Moms have to go through so much physically, mentally, and emotionally while giving birth. Dads need to practice how to say the right things at the right moments during labor…

Oh boy.

Don't do this.

Git r done, as they say.
